Proudly petulant and sickly slanderous, this album is a bitter dissemination of British society, seen through the eyes of the pioneering Ian Hicks, whose examinations are delivered through the thick glass of a malfunctioning CRT computer monitor, and screamed via the piercing fidelity of an equally desiccated dial up modem.

This is apparently the last record that will be released by Ian Hicks under the Baron Mordant alias, and it screams with all the intense quality you could expect of someone whose work with Portion Control has shifted the course of industrial music since the early 80’s.

Ian’s wider influence on music culture is incalculable and his recorded contributions innumerable. His efforts even extend to the development of Dubstep in the early 00’s by releasing Shakleton’s ‘Stalker’, which bears a key resemblance to ‘Mark Of The Mould’ in that they are both ground breaking, and sound quite unlike anything that came before them.
